Nearing completion in the west ern Douglas County area is the ambitious stream-clearance proj ect involving tributaries of the Umpqua and Smith Rivers. The Oregon State Game Commis sion is spearheading the stream to restore the spawning beds and related resource protection values of the coastal streams. A total of 18 miles of densely packed drifts of old timbers and debris have been removed from Vincent Creek, Big Creek, Mose- town Creek, tributary to the Smith River; and Weatherly, Lutsinger and Little Paradise Creeks of the Umpqua. Several Participate Jim and Jake Mitchell, opera tors of Mitchell Bros., logging con tractors, have the contract with the Game Commission. Pariticpat ing in the Umpqua-Smith project are the U.S. Bureau of Land Man agement and the International Pa per Company, owners of the ef fected land. Participation in the cost is on a 60-40 basis, with the Game Commission sharing the ma jor portion. Drifts and log jams removed from the creek beds have, accumu lated throughout past decades, re sulting in part from careless log ging methods of the past, and from natural blowdown and storm dam age. The Weatherly Creek project, involving enormous drifts, is in the Weatherly Creek timber burn area, stricken twice in recent decades by devastating forest fires. The latest fire occurred in 1951, when tens of thousands of acres of tim ber were charred. Stocking Planned The rehabilitated spawning streams will be stocked with salm on and possibly steelhead and cut throat, probably next year, in an effort to restore the normal spawn ing cycles, Game Department spokesmen say. The project has also restored the scenic values of some of the streams, such as Weatherly Creek, where a picturesque canyon had been piled high with unsighly drift. The clearance at this point reduced the fall or drop of the stream flow from a sheer 40-foot falls from the edge of the drift to a'aradual 12 feet over a 150-toot stretch of the stream.
